The company said a shipment loaded with 59,164 tonnes of iron ore departed on Wednesday, taking total shipments to 293,033 tonnes as the $2.57 billion Karara project continues to ramp up in WA's Mid-West region.

Gindalbie managing director Tim Netscher said the first five Karara shipments had been completed in three weeks.
